In a recent comparison study of the 20 best-selling Vitamin D supplements in the United States for Vitamin D content, heavy metal contamination, and presence/absence of GMOs, NutriGold's Vitamin D3 Gold product earned LabDoor's ranking of "A" in Best Quality and #1 in Best Value.

It is important for the consumer to be aware of the differences among supplement brands in order to purchase a product that will provide optimal results.

LabDoor.com tests the purity and label accuracy of hundreds of best-selling vitamins and supplements. According to their website, “We buy products in the same fashion as the average consumer - through retail stores and online sites. No manufacturer-supplied samples are permitted at LabDoor.” As part of their mission to “Stay Healthy with LabDoor,” a recent study was performed on twenty of the best-selling Vitamin D supplements in the United States for Vitamin D3 content, heavy metal contamination, and presence/absence of GMO events.

LabDoor's proprietary algorithms create ratings for each product along five axes - label accuracy, product purity, nutritional value, ingredient safety, and projected efficacy. These five ratings are combined to create a quality score, which is used to generate a single, A-F letter grade for each product, along with two rankings that estimate which products are expected to provide the Highest Quality and Best Value for consumers.

The #1 Best Value Ranking was given to NutriGold’s Vitamin D3 Gold (1000 IU) product. In addition, NutriGold’s Vitamin D3 Gold (2000 IU) received the #3 spot in the same Best Value Category.

As an added accolade for NutriGold’s Vitamin D3 Gold product, the letter grade of “A” (highest score assigned) was given to both the 1000 and 2000 IU formulas in the category of Highest Quality.

Vitamin D is an essential nutrient that helps build and maintain strong bones and teeth. It does so by helping the body absorb calcium (one of bone's main building blocks) from food and supplements. People who get too little Vitamin D may be at increased risk of developing issues with bone mineral density.

Not all Vitamin D products are formulated in the same way. It is important for the consumer to be aware of the differences among supplement brands in order to purchase a product that will provide optimal results. Highlights of NutriGold’s Vitamin D3 formula that earned the grade of “A” in Quality should be used by consumers to compare brands when shopping:
